C.J. Kayfus Connects on his Second Major-League Home Run
Cleveland Guardians first baseman/outfielder C.J. Kayfus hit his second homer in the majors on Monday night to help the Guardians claim a 3-1 victory in their series opener against the Diamondbacks. Kayfus started the scoring with his home run off Zac Gallen in the second inning and finished the game 2-for-3 with a walk, two runs scored, and an RBI. Kayfus is hitting .239 with his two homers, two stolen bases, and a .319 wOBA in his 15 games in the majors. Before his promotion, he hit .300 in 86 games in the minors, totaling 14 homers, four stolen bases, and a .408 wOBA between Double-A and Triple-A. The 23-year-old has been splitting time between first base and the outfield and is looking to establish himself as a key part of the Guardians' young core going forward. He has decent power upside and a little speed, and he could emerge as a strong mixed league pickup if he keeps trending up down the stretch.
